Horse Name | Jockey | Gear | Comment |
1 | 8 | HAPPY ZERO (CK079) | W C Marwing | H | Nicely placed 3Ls back in 3rd with cover at 800 M, moved closer on straightening and led 300 M out, pulled clear for another comfortable win. |
2 | 5 | ACHILLES OF TROY (CJ190) | O Doleuze | TT | Very reluctant on way to start, 3-back the rails 4Ls off in 5th at 800 M, closer off last curve, kept on best of the rest, had little chance with winner. (Tactic questioned.) |
3 | 12 | LUCKY RED (CJ059) | W M Lai | -- | Crossed from wide gate to set a good pace by 2Ls at 800 M, headed about 300 M out, gamely clung on for a place. |
4 | 3 | FINN MACCOOL (CK072) | D Whyte | -- | Lost ground at the start, 6Ls down and a little green at first, closer but wide off last turn, kept on fairly well and narrowly missed a place. |
5 | 2 | BOOMING CITY (CE325) | M L Yeung | B/TT | 2-wide and 4Ls back in 4th leaving back straight, 2Ls down off last bend, had his opportunity to place but couldn't find that bit extra. |
6 | 6 | GO DAN GO (CJ327) | Z Purton | -- | Over-raced on rails with head high in places along back straight, just 3Ls back in 5th or so off last bend, weakened out gradually thereafter. |
7 | 11 | HORSE WIN WIN (CJ078) | Y T Cheng | -- | Slow to muster pace and 8Ls back in 12th at the 800 M, made some minor late ground past beaten rivals in the homestretch. |
8 | 9 | ROCKET POWER (CH136) | K L Chui | B/TT | Went back from a wide gate and soon detached in rear, 9Ls last swinging for home, ran on past a few spent rivals to wrap up. |
9 | 7 | NOBLE DE BEST (CJ160) | K T Yeung | B1/TT1 | Fractious in the gates, soon about 8Ls behind in rear, still well back off last bend, never any danger. |
10 | 14 | NAMJONG HUNTER (CH280) | K C Leung | -- | Posted 4-wide no cover throughout, 4Ls back in midfield at halfway, wider off final turn and extra work led to a one-paced conclusion. |
11 | 10 | WIND KNIGHT (CJ326) | C K Tong | SR | Went back from a wide gate, at least 7Ls from the pace until home straight, never on terms and eased late. |
12 | 1 | PICKETT (CG155) | T H So | -- | Raced 2Ls back in 2nd down back straight, 1L down but hard pressed to hold position off last turn, well beaten before the 200 M and eased late. |
13 | 4 | ZAM ZAMMAH (CJ016) | J Victoire | -- | Raced greenly with head up down the back in midfield, 4Ls back off final bend but soon wilted. |
14 | 13 | GALACTIC TACTIC (CH095) | S K Sit | -- | Towards rear about 6Ls behind at first, checked at the 800 M, 5Ls down off last bend but soon outpaced and eased down close home. |
